Special
Waste Generators:

SEMCO
can
require Special Waste Authorization from the
Iowa Department of Natural Resources for contaminated soils other than
basic
petroleum contaminates. Petroleum based soils require a copy of the
contaminates
from a certified testing lab to be furnished to SEMCO
landfill
along with
the landfill's generator report and manifest. Click here
for the code requirements on Petroleum Contaminated Soils.

The
landfill will review the paperwork prior to the
waste coming to the landfill and notify the generator if it is
acceptable or
not. There will be a $200.00 handling fee for contaminated soil.

SEMCO
will not accept sludges. Dirt should be
fairly dry and will only be accepted when weather permits!
